And in 2019 in the EU if we're lucky.

Well, in the case they have no dual audio and I need to import, at least I'll be getting the game half a year early. That's something when the last persona main game came out 8 years ago.

Great, now I have to avoid spoilers for 5-6 months.

Guess I know which one I'll be pre-ordering...

Dammit, Atlus!

I'm actually okay with the delay, I'll be able to get a playthrough of SMT IV: Apocalypse before it comes out

I definitely want to get that collectors edition

Goddamnit I wanted them to give us the anniversary edition. Every game in the entire series, on individual discs, for the PS3/4. Not to mention the individual soundtrack to every game in the entire series, and an artbook for the whole series. I almost considered importing it. This hurts : (

Oh yeah, if i end up importing due to lack of dual audio that's the one I'm getting. Who knows when a better chance will ever come or even if it will.

Digital only, naturally.

Of course, Atlus wouldn't have it any other way!

Does the Japanese version have English subtitles? I'll have to mull it over if it does.

Nah, if it did half the people would import it since waiting for a dub you don't even want makes no sense lol.

Aww, man... More waiting? Just release the sucker already! *Grumblecakes*

Meh, this changes little for me. I'm watching the anime first, since I found it to be more enjoyable than actually playing P4. I love me some Persona, but hate me some dungeon crawling.

I'm pretty sure it only comes with music tracks from all the games, not the actual games.

It seems is time to get a physical Copy for my PS3 baby...
I need more time to finish the other games I well I want to play, cause I will playing ONLY THIS for many days.
